Are you looking forward to watch Krrish 3 this Diwali?

Powered by a range of spectacular special effects and extravagant action sequences a la Hollywood, Krrish 3 is a visual treat that looks both promising and tempting

Hrithik Roshan as superhero inKrrish 3promises double bonanza for the movie buffs when it comes out Friday, two days before Diwali. According to sources, the Rs 100-Rs 150 crore film will see a wide release and hit about 3,500 screens.

When asked about the cost, the film’s director-producer Rakesh Roshan said: “I can’t reveal the budget of the movie, but it has been a very costly film.”

A third in the franchise that began with 2003 hit sci-fi movie Koi… Mil Gaya, Krrish 3 will take forward the story of the superhero Krrish, played by Hrithik. The film toplines Priyanka Chopra, Kangna Ranaut and Vivek Oberoi. While Priyanka plays Hrithik’s love interest, Kangana and Vivek will be seen in negative roles.

Predicting a thunderous start for the film, trade analyst Taran Adarsh feels that eventually the film’s content will decide its course. If Krrish saw Krishna defeating Siddhant Arya and save his father Rohit, Krrish 3 will reportedly see the superhero fighting with a dark force, an evil genius who is spreading fear.

“I am certain that the film will see a thunderous start. But then after that the content of the film will decide how many people go and see it,” Adarsh said.

Rakesh Roshan is confident that the film will make audiences proud.”I don’t know how the opening will be for the film. But the film has been made well and it will definitely make audiences proud,” said senior Roshan

Red Chillies VFX, a subdivision of Shahrukh’s motion picture production banner Red Chillies Entertainment, worked on the special effects worth Rs 26 crore for Krrish 3.

Aggressive promotion has become must in the current scenario as the first three days’ collection can make or break a film. And the Roshans have done everything – from tapping digital space by launching the first poster Facebook to merchandising to travelling to various cities. Also, a range of special emoticons were launched as a part of the film’s promotions on social networking site Facebook.
